Proverbs 27:11-13

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹¹ Be wise, my son, and make my heart glad
so that I can answer anyone who criticizes me.
¹² Sensible people foresee trouble and hide.
Gullible people go ahead ⌞and⌟ suffer.
¹³ Hold on to the garment of one who guarantees a stranger’s loan,
and hold responsible the person
who makes a loan in behalf of a foreigner.
